Her music may be the unofficial anthem of the holiday season, but officially, Mariah Carey is not the"Queen of Christmas" – or even the holiday's"princess" – the U.S. Trademark Trial and Appeal Board ruled on Tuesday.
According to the release, the trademark board not only rejected Carey's request to exclusively use the title, but also"rejected and denied" her requested trademarks of"Princess Christmas" and"QOC." Chan's opposition was represented by the law firm WilmerHale. The firm's partner Louis Tompros said in a release that Carey's attempt was a"classic case of trademark bullying."
